  • The device dates from 2011. sane-airscan will not do anything for you.

Re: [Hardware] is my raw printer able to print ?

What an interesting printer! It is Mopria certified but, because the URF= key is absent, is not AirPrint certified. The pdl= key indicates that it should provide enough for it to fit Debian's driverless printing system. Set up this print queue: lpadmin -p SP277 -v ipp://277NwX-DB7690.local/ipp/print...

Re: [Hardware] is my raw printer able to print ?

The difference between SP SNwX and NwX isn't of any consequence. What is of consequence is that your avahi-browse output from the printer is incomplete. May we have the full output?

Re: I can't get duplex printing on Debian 11

Just to be clear. I notice that the printer doesn't work since I upgraded from Debian 10 to Debian 11 because someone didn't do their job right. The first portion of the sentence is significant. The second portion introduces finger pointing (at Canon?) and I do not think we should have that :). You...

Re: Pantum Printer P2500 not working on Debian 11.5

The printer is P2500 model. It can be only connected to the computer with USB 2.0 cable. No wireless, no LAN. Existing USB print queues will fail in Debian 11: the print queue must be driverless. If I understood this correctly, then any USB print queues will fail in Debian 11? Is there a workaround...

Re: Transfer printer drivers from older Linux install

Thank you for your faith in my abilities, FreewheelinFrank :). You are correct; checking Apple and OpenPrinting does not show the device to be AirPrint enabled.
